Within the Hudson valley in the state of New York there is an abundance of amazing things to see. And on this full day hiking trip, we would like to show you the Megaliths. This amazing highlight is a true wonder in an already stunning area. Both unique and scenic, the Megaliths are a collection of loose boulders that have split from the bedrock.
The trail to get to the Megaliths is long, at least 8 miles. It also has some challenging parts. Hence why participants on this trip should be in good physical condition. It would also be advantageous if you had previous hiking experience as well.
Throughout the hike, you will have every opportunity to admire the natural landscape of the Hudson valley, including an assortment of lakes, rivers, and forest. And when we finally reach the Megaliths, you will be given a picture perfect view point of what will seem like the entire valley. You will also be able to not only admire the amazing and famous Catskills mountains as well!
Hiking is a great activity any time of the year. And most times the enjoyment comes from the hike itself. However, on this hike there is a fantastic goal, the amazing Megaliths. And not only is this stunning rock formation a joy to behold, but it is also in the perfect position to see so much more.
If you would like to enjoy this adventurous trip, just send us a request. We look forward to hearing from you.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
